The 1992–93 MetJHL season is the 2nd season of the Metro Junior A Hockey League (MetJHL). The 13 teams of the Fullan and Bauer Divisions competed in a 48-game schedule. The top 6 teams in each division made the playoffs.
The winner of the MetJHL playoffs, the Wexford Raiders, could not proceed further in the National playdowns as the MetJHL was not a member of the Ontario Hockey Association. However, the Raiders were permitted to play a 2-game series for charity against the OHA's Central Junior League's champion, the Barrie Colts. The Raiders won both games.

Final
- Wexford Raiders defeated St. Michael's Buzzers 4-games-to-1
The Barrie Colts of the OHA's Central Junior A League and the Wexford Raiders of the Metro League played a pair of exhibition games head-to-head for charity. The purpose of the games was to match the probably champions of the two leagues head-to-head to see where each league's talent level stood if the OHA was to allow both leagues in as sanctioned Junior A leagues for the 1993–94 season. Wexford won both games by narrow margins, but the second game was marred by an incident involving a fight, initiated by the Barrie Colts, that spilled into the crowd.
- Wexford Raiders defeated Barrie Colts (CJAHL) 7-6
- Wexford Raiders defeated Barrie Colts (CJAHL) 4-3
